In an unexpected move, MTV and their parent company Viacom today issued an apology to the metal band Manowar for what they referred to as “crimes against true heavy metal”. Kurt Jamerson, MTV’s Vice President of the Council on Metalhead Affairs, issued a short statement thanking Manowar for their commitment to “keeping it real” all these years and refusing to play on anything below 10. “At first, MTV started with the best intentions, but soon, our programming became a hodgepodge of hair metal and, eventually, rap metal. We left no room for artists who were committed to true metal in its most pure, unsullied form. For this we are deeply sorry.”

The picture on that link is hilarious!! Almost looks like 70's porn advertisement

Hahaha!!! best comment and so true!!!

without saying anything about the music but the picture -- awesome

I got a kick out of this.

"Many industry analysts have speculated that the announcement was part of a settlement with Manowar. The band had brought a 523 billion dollar lawsuit against the network for being “posers”, but the lawsuit was unexpectedly dropped last Friday."

Nicely cought Slav Similar like with United airlines...they aplogized after 3 songand clips about how they treat the guitars

The "Mankini" combined with all that chest hair is what gives it that look hehehehe. Don't get me wrong, MANOWAR freaking RAWK!!!! But I have always gotten a giggle from their promo pix
